I have such a difficult time understanding why other public intellectuals can’t understand Trump, how simple and effective his strategy is, and how it’s the polar opposite of the left’s narrative.
Trump is always negotiating and his objective is profoundly moral: to make the world pay their way rather than burn the american people as we have been doing so that our friends in europe can posture they have higher virtue at the expense of american workers.
